example 1

[0055]MoS2 in the form of finely ground material is placed in a reactor. The particle size is in the range 0.5 to 10 micron depending on the application. The reactor is treated with CO2 at 70° C. and 300 bar for 1 hour. The pressure is released in such a configuration that the suspension of MoS2 in CO2 is sprayed into a thermostated liquid. The liquid may be silicone oil or other suitable liquids chosen with regard to further processing.

example 2

[0056]MoS2 is placed in a reactor and glycerol with purity 98% or higher is added as a co solvent. The reactor is treated with CO2 at 70° C. and 300 Bar for 1 hour. The pressure is released catastrophically. The MoS2 is found as a silvery looking paste. The suspension is stable over weeks. The compatibility between MoS2 and glycerol is unexpected due to the hydrophobicity of MoS2 and the known hydrophilicity of glycerol.

example 3

[0057]MoS2 is placed in a reactor and silicone oil is added as a co solvent. The molar weight of the oil is selected in the range 10000-100000. The reactor is treated with CO2 at 70° C. and 300 bar for 1 hour. The pressure is released catastrophically. The MoS2 is found as a black viscous suspension of MoS2. The suspension is stable over weeks. The compatibility between MoS2 and silicone oil is expected due to the hydrophobicity of MoS2 and the hydrophobicity of silicone.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for producing delaminated/exfoliated non-ionic inorganic materials, to such materials and their use as additives.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to the field of exfoliated and delaminated layered inorganic materials and the use of these materials.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The group of materials termed chalcogenides is characterized as being minerals with a predominantly two-dimensional structure i.e. materials with strong bindings in the individual layer and with weak Van der Waals forces between the layers. The minerals therefore appear as strongly layered. Under pressure shearing of the layers may as a consequence occur. This is the main argument for use of molybdenum sulphide as a lubricant since the layers slide easily. For these reasons it has been used by NASA in low friction materials for space applications.[0003]For many years it has been attempted to find methods whereby the layers may be separated creating a very large specific surface. This goal has successfully been achieved in the processing of clay minerals. These are typically phyllosilicates fre...
